Oncidium

The name of this genus stems from the Greek word "Onkos" (swelling), which refers to the thickening on the lip. They consist of long, flat pseudobules that wear one or two leaves.
The flower stems are usually very long and provide many small flowers. These flowers have a very striking, large lip and are usually yellow in color with or without red/brown markings.

The oncidium is a separate appearance and has typical characteristics. This orchid usually blooms between 6 and 8 weeks with good care. The most common color flour with these orchids is yellow, but there are also types that have other colors.

Some oncidiums not only have a very beautiful flower to see, but they are also nice and scented. In addition, there are even versions that have almost black colors in the flowers. Dark red or purple flowers also occur. That makes it a versatile orchid genus.
